[Bug 1209493] Re: [FFe] libapache2-svn missing in saucy

[Robie Basak]

** Description changed:

+ [FFe]
+ 
+ libapache2-svn was dropped in Debian to unblock the Apache 2.4
+ transition. This was an intentional regression.
+ 
+ Patches have been in Debian BTS for a while, and a DD has now uploaded a
+ delayed NMU for it. (The package is now libapache2-mod-svn).
+ 
+ I'd like to cherry-pick this change for Saucy, but only if the NMU
+ lands. The patch against the NMU notice in Debian BTS looks good. But
+ since this involves a "new" binary package, I don't have visibility of
+ the exact canonical patch yet. But I will make sure that what I cherry-
+ pick only impacts the new binary package, and test it myself.
+ 
+ Impact: we will completely regress the Subversion Apache module if we do
+ not fix this. Regression risk: as long as we're only impacting the new
+ binary package, I don't see that we can make the situation worse. I will
+ need to check carefully that this will only impact the new binary
+ package.

+ [Original Description]

  The package does not exist in saucy - and  mod_dav_svn.so is not
  provided by any other package.

  libapache2-svn was dropped in Debian to unblock the Apache 2.4
  transition. This was an intentional regression.

  Patches have been in Debian BTS for a while, and a DD has now uploaded
  a delayed NMU for it. (The package is now libapache2-mod-svn).

  I'd like to cherry-pick this change for Saucy, but only if the NMU
  lands. The patch against the NMU notice in Debian BTS looks good. But
  since this involves a "new" binary package, I don't have visibility of
  the exact canonical patch yet. But I will make sure that what I
  cherry-pick only impacts the new binary package, and test it myself.

  Impact: we will completely regress the Subversion Apache module if we
  do not fix this. Regression risk: as long as we're only impacting the
  new binary package, I don't see that we can make the situation worse.
  I will need to check carefully that this will only impact the new
  binary package.
